“John, Focus is not only about editing images. It's a place for friendly discussion about images too. Alternatively, you could upload the images to the (inappropriately named) Showcase section of the website and ask for comments there.”

“Derek has contacted SPA about Denoise and received the followingDerekThis has very recently become unclear!In my current version 14.5.1 denoise has become integrated into the main 'detail' editing panel. The previous iteration certainly used generative AI. 'Manual' noise reduction is definitely safe.Will publish further details when all becomes clear.”

“I believe the group that wrote this are effectively trying to draw a line in the sand, declaring that no further progress in photo editing should be allowed. You could call them the King Cnut of the photographic world!Rather than saying no AI should be allowed, we ought to be having a discussion about the image itself – and whether what is produced remains true to it.”

“Good luck any club trying to enforce this, the AI distraction / object remove tool is with us now. Also how crazy, they seam to be saying that AI noise reduction whether Lightroom or Topaz is not allowed. ”
